LXNAV S10 / S100 Variometer
LXNAV S10 / S100 Variometer
Stand-alone digital variometer with final glide calculator, IGC flight recorder, Bluetooth, backup battery and navigation system with moving map.
General Description
LXNAV S10/S100 is a standalone digital variometer, final glide calculator and navigation system with a simple moving map. The LXNAV S10/S100 has both GPS/FLARM and PDA/PNA input/output. The unit has standard dimensions that will fit into a glider panel with an opening of 80 mm diameter (3.15”) or 57 mm diameter. It is also able to supply a PDA/PNA with power (5VDC/1A). The unit has an integrated high-precision digital pressure sensor and inertial system. The sensors are sampled more than 100 times per second. Real-Time Data is displayed via a vario needle, an airspace map and up to 4 variable numeric fields displayed on a QVGA 320x240 pixel, 3.5″ (S100) or 2.5″ (S10), high brightness (1200 nits) color display. To adjust values and settings the LXNAV S10/S100 has two rotary push button knobs and three additional push buttons.
The LXNAVS10/S100 can be expanded with one or more repeaters via the CAN bus. This allows both pilots in a two-seat glider to have independent control of all functions of each unit in the front or the rear seat.
The S10x unit includes a built-in IGC-approved flight recorder, a Bluetooth module and its own backup battery which provides from 3 to 4.5 hours of independent operation.
The S10x is also capable of running HAWK system (optional purchase), which provides pilot a real time three dimensional wind.
Features
- An extremely bright 3.5’’ (S100) or 2.5” (S10) QVGA color display readable in all sunlight conditions with the ability to adjust the backlight.
- Two rotary switches (knobs) with push button function and three push buttons are used for input.
- Pre-loaded polar database for nearly all gliders.
- GPS/FLARM and PDA/PNA input/output.
- FLARM Indication if a FLARM is connected to the GPS/FLARM port.
- Programmable “needles” for selectable data such as netto vertical speed, relative (super netto) and vertical speed (vario).
- 320x240 pixels color screen for additional information such as average, thermal vario, time, speed, etc…
- Many custom audio settings.
- 100Hz sampling rate for very fast response.
- Speed to fly indication.
- TE compensation can be selected to be either a pneumatic TE probe or electronic TE.
- Audio equalizer, for custom vario sound performance.
- Audio thermal assistant.
- Built-in high-level, IGC-approved flight recorder.
- Built-in Bluetooth module.
- Backup battery.
- Engine noise level sensor (ENL).
- Built-in GPS module.
